    Springfield distinguish classic 1911

    Has anyone ever seen one or fired one. Seems like a unicorn in the hiding.

    Yeah I seen those pictures also. But I want to see an actual picture from someone who has one or a video of one. I’d like to actually see one in person before I buy it.

      For the money, you might as well go full custom from a well known gunsmith, or just get a SA Pro, unless you specifically want the adjustable sights and that grip treatment.

        I have a “loaded” model with the same rear sight. It’s crap and I want to change it. The problem is the LPA cut limits your options for replacement. While I love my 1911, the sights have been a let down.

        Aside from the sights that’s a sweet looking pistol. A PRO model would add a mag well.

          Maybe I can order it with different sights and add magwell. I like the color combo with the grips

            I have those rear sights and I love them. Precise adjustments make it very accurate. It does suck in a dark room though.

                But you could flip it, with the off roster premium you could easily get 10k in the marketplace here.

                  Ha, maybe if lucky, as Barnum once said there is one born every minute but look at the semi custom 1911 market these days - it is SOFT. There are off roster Wilsons and Baers just sitting not being sold. Right now its a buyers market and 10K will buy you an off roster Burton 1911 or a Yost, maybe even a Rogers - people who spend that kind of money on 1911s have a lot of full custom choices at that price point.

                    Actually it seems like it is more of a double stack 2011 market and polymer market these days.....

                      Only an idiot would pay 10k for that. Granted, this is CA, still....
